Andrea Jin: Comedy & Critical Mothers

What do we really know about our parents' lives and the decisions they make? Comedian, actor and writer Andrea Jin was often left wondering where her strong emotions came from, and in her 20s, she discovered a deep family secret that made sense of it all. Linda meets Andrea in downtown LA where Andrea intimately shares her unconventional life story, and the two women bond over Asian families (and relationships with critical mothers), career aspirations, sexuality and how important it is to know your origin story.Join Linda on her hilarious and real journey towards self-reflection and growth. Season 3 will continue to see Linda grapple with every essence of change and control with an extended season of weekly episodes of returning characters and a new cast of exciting guests: comedians Blair Socci (Aqua Teen Forever), DeAnne Smith (Netflix’s Gender Agenda), best-selling author & therapist Vienna Pharaon (The Origins of You), and some of the most integral personalities of pop cultural fabric, Sophie Ansari (Podcrushed), Osher Günsburg (The Bachelor), and more to be revealed.Follow Andrea on her IG @andreajinFollow IG: @toughloveteam Follow Linda on IG: @lindamariglianoSponsorship?
